I think most of us would not want to exist if that was the outcome. If you had the choice of creating somebody who could only be created as destined to go to hell, would you create that person? I doubt you would.
Does God not have empathy? Creating people who can only go to hell is a violation of "do others has you would have them do unto you."
Maybe you should be asking Does God actually say we will burn in Hell forever? Or is that dark ages church doctrine?
